    We have a Service Rifle comp in Welly each year where guys shoot out to 800, some with apperture sights, and some with normal peep/front blade setups !

    And even some of the black-powder boys shoot out to amazing distances using Sharps or Highwall replicas with Creedmoor tang sights.

    This weekend we had guys shooting out to 200yds using irons and big bores, and several had a go at the 500 yd gong after the comp.
    hell i need more practice. 200m with opens is the best i ever did
    ebf and WallyR like this.
